Adding outputs to a MediaConnect flow
For transport stream flows, you can add up to 50 outputs. However, for optimal performance, follow the guidance offered in Best practices. Every output must have a name, a protocol, an IP address, and a port.
Note
If you intend to set up an entitlement for an output, don't create the output. Instead, grant an entitlement. When the subscriber creates a flow using your content as the source, the service creates an output on your flow.
The method you use to add an output to a flow is dependent on the type of output that you want to add:
-
Standard output (transport stream flow) – Sends compressed content to any destination that is not a virtual private cloud (VPC) that you configured using Amazon Virtual Private Cloud.
-
VPC output (transport stream flow) – Sends compressed content to a VPC that you configured using Amazon Virtual Private Cloud.
-
VPC output (CDI flow) – Sends uncompressed content to a VPC that you configured using Amazon Virtual Private Cloud.
